Not even high resolution screens work properly yet.

Wayland has done some progress, but still half of my applications look like sh when I use fractional scaling.

Linux is great if all you need is a terminal. Once you need a peripheral, then good luck, literally.

There’s no OS that doesn’t have problems with wireless headsets in Teams. Bluetooth and sound stacks is a badly/barely working combination everywhere. Hibernation is usually the test that fails the sound stacks everywhere.

literally 0 issues on my macbook

It has different issues, but wireless headsets nor hibernation are among them

Do they look like shell, or like shit? You can use grownup words here.

Just wait until you try this new Windows thing. Zero hardware support for anything.
